This week I discuss my trip to Sacramento, California to acquire an incredible 1948 Leaf Collection! There was absolutely no way that I would travel all the way across the country without leaving with this collection. Make sure you check out the video version on the Just Collect YouTube page to take a look at the highlights!

This has been an absolute wild day in the hobby and there is plenty to talk about! I start with the massive news of the sealed case of 1st Edition Base Set Pokémon that Logan Paul purchased for 3.5 Million Dollars turned out to be fake! Why this is so important is that the box was veriified by the Baseball Card Exchange. Knowing this information it is clear to see how this can have implications on the hobby at large since BBCE has become an industry standard in verification. What we can take away from the situation is that humans can make errors! I absolutely feel bad for all parties involved, and it is definitely not a feel good moment.

Next up we talk about some huge news from the Breaking Community where a well known breaker commited a massive blunder. They were livestreaming a FREE break as part of a giveaway and upon realizing they pulled a MASSIVE hit that could be worth over $20,000, they decided to keep the card. Bad form for the breakers, bad form for the hobby and just not a good look in general. 

We wrap up with a story of how I thinned the hoard! I had someone come to the Just Collect/Vintage Breaks office and purchase over 35,000 ungraded  vintage cards from me! I came to grips that I wouldn't get the same amount as if I sold them individually, but knowing that I didn't need to go through the cards to price them individually was very appealing. Also knowing that I didn't need to pay eBay fees was a HUGE relief! By recognizing what the buyer could bring to the table in terms of expertise and fair business, I felt great to strike a great deal!

On this week's episode I give my hot take and feelings on the MASSIVE Hobby news of Fanatics purchasing the Topps Sports and Entertainment division! Overall this is exceptionally good news for the Hobby, regardless of what disipline you subscribe to. There will be benefits to the Collector, Investor, Dealer and Business Owners in the space no matter how you look at it. I was surprised that this news came so soon, as I expected this purchase to not happen for 12 or 18 months out. It addresses the concerns that Topps would overproduce as they rode out their remaining days of production. I think all will be well from a production and allocation standpoint.

It will be interesting to follow how Fanatics will handle price points, distribution, and even the ecosystem at large. Will Fanatics enter the breaking space? How will a direct to consumer model will impact how we acquire cards? Can we see a return to price points that we saw years ago? All really interesting talking points that are worth digging into. Whatever the outcome, it is clear that Fanatics is concerned with how things roll out. 

We change gears to close things out with the news that our current office building in Somerset, NJ has been sold! This means that we will be moving our operation in the next few months which will allow us to improve just about every area of the Just Collect and Vintage Breaks business. If you know any Commercial Real Estate Agents in NJ, drop us a line!
